String Quartets in Suffolk
String quartets and classical ensembles in Suffolk
For a traditional ceremony with a touch of grandeur, it's hard to beat live strings. In Suffolk, quartets and smaller string ensembles are booked for the aisle, the signing and the drinks reception afterwards.
Across Suffolk, string quartets and ensembles are booked for weddings and events in and around Ipswich, Bury St Edmunds and Lowestoft. Venues in the area include Snape Maltings, Copdock Hall and Butley Priory, each with its own ceremony rooms, lawns and reception spaces. The Granary Estates, Branches Park Estate and Hengrave Hall are among the other Suffolk venues listed further down, each with its own page.
Live strings give a ceremony real presence. A quartet of two violins, viola and cello fills a church or ceremony room without any amplification, and the same ensemble can move on to the drinks reception afterwards.

A full quartet, with two violins, viola and cello, gives the richest sound and suits a large ceremony room or church. A trio or duo is a good choice for a smaller room or a tighter budget, and still sounds elegant for a drinks reception.
Expect to pay from around £500 up to £1,500. A duo for the ceremony sits at the lower end, while a full quartet covering the ceremony, drinks reception and wedding breakfast sits towards the upper end. Busy Saturdays in summer and December sit at the top of the range, and your quote shows exactly what's included.
Every act's page has video and audio of the performer you would actually book, along with their repertoire and written reviews from couples who have booked them. It's the easiest way to check the style and the sound before you commit.
Enter your date and venue in the instant quote button for live pricing and availability. After you book, we look after the contract, deposit and details, and keep in touch right up to the wedding. You also get a 14-day change-of-mind refund and an emergency contact number to use on the day.
